Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Committee
Mission Statement
The Falmouth Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) Advisory Committee promotes an equitable, just, and welcoming environment in Falmouth, where all feel included and respected.
We review Town policies, procedures, and programs through a DEIB lens and make recommendations for improvements to the Select Board.
We proactively engage with Falmouth town government, community partners, the school district, residents and visitors to achieve this goal.
We welcome all to share any DEIB-related concerns with the Committee and we will suggest resources and support as needed.
We are committed to fostering a safe and respectful space where all are welcome to exchange ideas, share information and participate in making Falmouth a community that recognizes and embraces the inherent worth and dignity of all people.
